Headache and Stress
Friday, January 23, 2009 @ 5:59 PM

To accomplish great things, we must not only act, but also dream; not only plan, but also believe. - Anatole France

My head has been aching for five horrific hours, and I only remembered that I had Tylenol with me fifteen minutes ago (what a dumb ass); so I'm going to blow off this headache whilst it heals via acetaminophen to blog about this hell of a tiring week.

First of all, congratulations to us, bwahaha! This year, the JUNIORS were the overall champion for the intrams (which by the way is entitled "Kulaydasports"—like what the hell). We won all the major sports: Basketball (Niky, you are heroic!), volleyball (So much teamwork!—I love it. And congrats to Maybel, MVP!), futsal (Yani, you are amazing with your soccer skills and pink bandana, whooo), ultimate frisbee (I so love how frisbee is totally our staple sport), table tennis (Billie and Anna, man, you are both awesome), and track (So. Fucking. Awesome.). Plus we won this sprinting thing, and SCRABBLE, HAHAHA. Although against my own will, I did play for the first Scrabble round, and all who participated actually got a medal, ha ha ha. It's an embarrassing thing to have around: a medal that literally says "Championship: Scrabble" at the back (oh man); but it's still really cool that the Pink Batch won so many of the sports, that the Pink Batch is overall champion of the intrams—and thank God, because I was going to kill someone if the seniors were the champion. Apparently, the overall championship is "supposed" to go to the seniors every year, but thankfully, victory went to the rightful batch when the results were just glaringly obvious.

Another thing about this week and the next is the amount of work needed for school. I'm sure there's something to do for almost every subject: For English, we need to submit the introduction for our final paper. For THE, we have to create the diorama of a living room. For Social Studies, we need to produce a play about the French Revolution and I need the script done as soon as ever possible—SO BADLY LIKE I CAN DIE OVER THE STRESS. For Chem, we need to revise the draft of the IP for the absolutely final paper. For Filipino, we need to read El Fili (and more for me, since I didn't read chapters three and four yet) and get ready for an upcoming post-test. For PE, we have to write a reaction paper about a futsal game during the intrams. Even for Social Action (though that's not technically a subject) we need to do something: Gawad Kalinga Build this Saturday—which is a concept/event that I so love, but scheduled at the worst of possible times. And in CL ... oh wait. Do we actually do anything in CL? Um. No.

So yeah, it's been a long week, and it'll be even worse for the days to come, but I just hope I can finish the complete shitload in time.
